Dave was a true friend, great partner serving in Sgt. Billy Reed’s Raiders 370 Squad, and a heck of a policeman. I’ll always remember the great times we had together and will miss him greatly. Rest in peace my friend and God Bless.

Dave Leach was a great man who will truly be missed! I feel blessed that I had the opportunity to work with Dave and get to know someone who you could trust and confide in. Dave was the friend who always had your back and knew how to make me smile even on the worst of days. I do take comfort knowing that Dave had a relationship with the Lord and know we will see him again one day in heaven. We love and miss you! RIP
